If its a business, you have to worry about taxes. If you are just selling old personal stuff, there is no need to worry about taxes, unless you are selling it for more than you paid (unlikely).

You dont.. eBay is fantastic. There is no need for any tax unless you are a registered business which if you are just starting to sell on eBay… I doubt it.

Legally you probably have to collect sales tax from sales you make to California residents. That varies from state to state though, and CA is so greedy they might want a piece of all of it.
Income taxes probably don’t apply if you’re selling things you bought for less than you paid for them.
Reality wise, I would be surprised if the Brown Shirted State Thugs busted you for avoiding sales tax.
